Seven Fires Keep Firemen Hard at Work During Week The Winnetka fire department was called to 204 Fuller lane, the residence of Ralph D. Huszagh, Thursday after- noon at 2:30 o'clock to extinguish a grass fire which had spread to the fence and was threatening the garage. Last Saturday evening the depart- ment was called to the Winnetka Dairy at 818 Oak street, where coals in ashes from the furnace, which had been placed in a basket at the rear of the building, ignited the basket and the fire spread to crates containing milk bottles, resulting in a big blaze with but little damage. There were two fires on Sunday, one at the residence of Charles L. Weeks, 170 Linden avenue, where, at 9 o'clock a. m., back-fire from an automobile in a garage attached to the residence caused a small blaze that threatened more serious damage for a time. The other fire Sunday was a grass fire at Wilson street and Elder lane, where sparks from a pass- ing locomotive set fire to the grass. There were also two calls Monday, one of which resulted in about $100 damage to a truck owned by Rapp Brothers. It occurred at 5:40 p. m, at Ridge and Meadow roads and was caused from an auto back-fire. While the department was on this call, a grass fire broke out at Ridge road and Winnetka avenue, which Richard Houren, who remained on duty at the station, tackled single handed, and with success. There was also a call Tuesday after- noon at 3:10 o'clock from the resi- dence of Philip J. Marqua. A small blaze resulting from a back-fire of his automobile had been extinguished before the department arrived. Miss Margaret Sterrett will leave next week for Mount Holyoke, where she will take the second semester's work. She has been spending the first semester this year at Northwest- ern.
